Author Bio:
In the digital realm, where the intersection of design and technology sparks innovation, Stephy shines as a beacon of creativity and inclusivity. Her journey from the structured world of chemistry to the fluid and dynamic universe of UX design is a testament to her versatility and insatiable curiosity. After more than two decades of navigating the intricacies of design, Stephy has become synonymous with solutions that are not just visually appealing but are profoundly impactful, making the digital space accessible to everyone.
Stephy’s foray into the world of accessible digital design wasn’t a chance occurrence but a response to the challenges faced by those closest to her—her children and coworkers grappling with the nuances of remote learning and digital accessibility. It’s this personal connection to the cause that fuels her passion for creating digital experiences that aren’t just functional but genuinely inclusive. Sparkles and glitter may adorn her designs, but at their core, they embody the principles of empathy and communication—traits that Stephy champions as the cornerstone of effective design.
Beyond her role as a designer, Stephy is a visionary speaker, captivating audiences with her deep insights into UX/UI trends, accessibility guidelines, and the transformative power of thoughtful design. Her presentations, lauded for their engaging delivery and practical applications, serve as a bridge connecting the dots between design theory and real-world impact. (Hmmm… that sounds like a great talk I should give.) Whether it’s improving PowerPoint presentations for enhanced accessibility or advocating for DEI within the design space, Stephy’s contributions are both a source of inspiration and a call to action for her peers.
To witness Stephy in her element is to see a pro streamer and presenter in action. Feedback from her sessions underscores her knack for creating engaging and informative experiences, with attendees often leaving with a renewed enthusiasm for tackling the challenges of digital design and presentation.
But let’s remember, underneath the pro-streamer facade and the ability to make PowerPoint bend to her will, she’s just someone who figured out how to turn “shitty digital experiences” into digital gold. And she did it all while championing the cause of accessibility, because, as it turns out, making things easy for everyone to use is actually pretty cool.
Stephy’s approach to design is unorthodox yet profoundly effective. A chemist turned designer, she sees beyond the surface, understanding that at the heart of every great design is the ability to connect, communicate, and empathize. Her mantra that “design degrees don’t matter at all” underscores her belief in the universal language of design—a language shaped not by credentials but by the ability to listen, understand, and respond to the needs of the user.
In a world where digital experiences are increasingly central to our daily lives, Stephy stands out as a guardian of accessibility, a designer par excellence (ok, ChatGPT is laying it on THICK), and a storyteller whose narratives are woven into the fabric of her designs. Her commitment to creating spaces that welcome everyone is not just her profession; it’s her passion—a passion that sparkles as brightly as the designs she creates.
